Hey Kev, can't thank you enough. Just finished the job today and was literally following you step by step. The only difference was I found it easier to remove the suspension arm from the 2 bolts rather than the ball joint. I did panic a little bit when I couldn't work out where the speedo drive is. I though I ripped it off but its all working. Thanks for the great video. There is only one small thing that could elevate it, if you had subtitles or something showing which size tools you are using. P.S. YOU BEAST !!! THAT GEARBOX WEIGHS A F**K TON. I bitched out and used a jack to help me lift it :D
I really enjoy your videos. You are a very professional mechanic. Without unnecessary movements, very enjoyable content for those who respect manual work and profession. Under the car in the cold windy weather, totally alone. It can be hard paralell with this complex work to handle the camera. Respect for your work! Thank you!
Brave Man hard worker,,20 years ago I use to work from home in minus 20c out in Canada,,Back then nothing was too hard,,Today I removed my glow plugs on 2014 Mokka,,Iwas sore all over simply too old..I admire your determination to do that job outside,,Good man.
You have my respect for what you do and how you are doing it. On the cars and on the internet you are just great. Thank you for all your videos and the time you spend doing it and responding to comments
I'm super impressed! Hard working man. Tough! Strong! Enduring the weather out in the cold. Obviously, knows what he's doing! Excellent filming! I now feel like I've now done a transporter diesel. We don't have those here in USA. Mobile clutch business? Interesting business model, but I'm impressed that he's doing it! I'm a Vw diesel mechanic and a transmission guy so I would know. Subscribed.
CoolAirVw Rm thanks for a great review. Really appreciate it coming from a VW mechanic makes it the more valuable. Since I launched the business i have yet to have a day without booking. Usually it’s two weeks waiting list. I suppose it works well as a lot of my customers are at work and they come out. Vehicle is ready to head home. Or for anyone having a day off work I’m there at their premise.... so the convenience is the USP. Thanks again for taking time to visit and subscribe to the channel. Very much appreciated
These older diesels will go for every if service often,I had a Audi 1.9 tdi pd engine on a 2003,I payed 1350 for it on 160 thousand miles,4 year later it was on 300 thousand miles,the only thing I changed on that car was the bottom arms one rear spring and a window regulator,and disk pads cambelt water pump,and serviced it every ten thousand miles my self,the car was unstable,loved it,what a engine
You're a remarkable grafter. It bad enough doing them in a workshop on a nice ramp. Doing clutches on your back every day in all weathers. You're made of stronger stuff than me.
spycrow lye thanks for for the support and great words of encouragement. I suppose I really enjoy what I do. I left a land rover dealership and haven’t looked back since. Been 6 years through all the seasons Monday to Friday. ... No back, knees or shoulder issues as of yet ... but then again I’m very cautious .... how about yourself do you do a bit of your own repair or a full time mechanic
@@WMCS Yeah was on spanners for 20 years. Various dealers and AA patrol. Work for myself doing steel fab now. The rate you're going you'll be managing a fleet of vans before your back gives out. Best of luck Kev.
spycrow lye thanks a lot for the great words of inspiration. I suppose I’ve still got young age on my side ... really appreciate the fact you took time to leave some great words. Thanks again.
Kevin I’m a mechanic in bristol mate your killing these clutch jobs awesome work if you’re ever in bristol hit me up and come over for a brew stay safe bro 😎👍
Daryl Dove I might just drive up there one of these weekends and take you up on that drink.., I can be a bit of a bottomless pit I have to warn you., we drink by the cask ..🍻🍻🍻

This was before u got your new Milwaukee 1/2 inch and that extended fuel ratchet. Love that new ratchet. I think my wife will b buying me one of those real soon!! Great work ethic!!
Little tip mate keep all the little rubber boots that come on new brake wheel cylinders and scutch they make great little covers to fit the ends of the hydraulic clutch lines to stop them bleeding out
Hi Kevin just watched you on the T5 well I worked on vw 25 years and we did not like doing them well done you made it look easy.(bit puffy lifting the box back)
Mr clutch has nothing on you matey, top job, done properly, I always drop the sub frame too, lost count of how many t5 dmf and clutches I've done, keep up the good work. A very good quality camera you have there.👍👍👍👍

Fantastic watch, your work is very impressive - I know how long it can take to film & edit a video like this to this detail and that’s not even factoring in the job itself - what a machine! Great work
i like your pushup strength to get the gearbox in place. i once done a clutch on my own too me 2 hours just to get the input shaft spline into the clutch. still gives me nightmares.
Muy buen mecánico, bastante habilidoso, me gustan estos vídeos en los que se hace desde el suelo, con elevadores cualquiera cambia un embrague, en el suelo es otra historia. Enhorabuena
Kevin just replaced the clutch and slave due to slave cylinder failing.. just one question if you don’t mind me asking.. I cannot for the life of me get a pedal. Tried all the basic techniques.. same as you, tried feeding the back down the bleed nipple with a syringe.. nothing. Any ideas? Cheers mate
I’ve watched this guy more than once and give credit where credit is due, I’m 55 and also done these kind of things but always with the help of someone else either to pass tools or to pump up on an engine lift at least to take the weight of the box, no doubt sir your good but please don’t kill yourself lifting gear boxes on your own.
The best mechanic video tutorial I see in years. Thanks, I will do in my 2.5 multivan next week. You are a genius. One question: I don see the tool for centering the disk. Do you use it o is not necessary at all?
Mate that's one hell of a job. You've managed to put me off ever wanted to become a mechanic I think if I achieve just doing that job once would be enough. Interested to search automatic Gearbox in the same model replacement
Gareth don’t be put off becoming a mechanic .., there’s different levels .., You have to start as a private unfortunately,, 🍻🍻🍻✨.,, or a Technician ..which is a bit like PCSO’s of the force ..😁💫
Mate I'm sat her in Sydney Australia I've been a chef for 30 years originally from Manchester. I have one of the T4 and been doing a lot of my own work in it. Just a hobby . Defiantly enjoy playing around with it. Helps when you have all the tools. It's funny because I never did want to become a mechanic. But I'm really enjoying working on this van and I also have a Ford falcon XR6. That I have done some basic work. I'm looking at getting another T4 but auto. Has a gear box problem only goes in 1st and second. That's how I found your Chanel. Great work man. 👍🏻

It was a fantastic time you managed to change it in but you were lucky not all VW’s come apart like this I know that from doing a few my self👍👍👍👍great vid tho👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😉
6k subscribers!. Congrats! No rain at last! The owners seem not to believe that you did it all 😂 It seems also that the alternator belt is linked to the engine on gearbox side. I have never seen it. By the way, it seemed to me that you lubed a socket and the square with the red grease at near the end of the video. Is it because it is not an impact socket? Many thanks and waiting for next video! After a year I have time to watch them all.
@@WMCS 😁 I feel like a VIP now lol. Done a brake job on my aunts car today and the sun was shining down which is always nice :) I don't always comment but I'm always here. I've seen people fighting in Tesco and Sainsbury's over toilet rolls, People are crazy lol. Hope you're doing well man :)
Man.. where are the days when we pulled a Beetle engine at 18:00, pullled the gearbox, transfer the side-shafts to a new one, replace box, bleed brakes, engine back and test drive at 21:00.... This is one serious job!
And the best part is when the owners come and say : wtf , why so expensive , you didnt have a more then a one hour of easy job , my friend will do it in 30 min ......
This is why I left the motor trade after my apprenticeship, there are cleaner - and safer - ways to earn a living. I remember doing front seals on Jaguar XJ6s, no matter how often I wiped the crankshaft, oil would always drip in my ear. In my time we didn't wear gloves, painful boils on a weekly basis were the order of the day. My mistake was trying to make a hobby my career. Well, at least I'm qualified to work on my own car. :)
Awesome video. I'm about to do one for a friend this weekend. Just two questions: 1: what is holding the subframe, why is it not on the floor ? 2: did you not have to align the clutch to the pressure plate? Hopefully you will answer before I find out the hard way :D great Video, great job, much respect mate!!!
1. Only unbolt the one side of the subframe as shown in the video. And the mounts. If it’s a 1.9 or a 2.0 they are much easier than the 2.5 there’s video of the the two others on the channel. Watch both for more in depth alignment of clutch. And you don’t have to remove the long drive shaft either. On this 2.5 I used my finger to centre the plate.
@@WMCS Thanks for the answer. I'm doing a 2.5tdi. I though you only did one side of the subframe but wasn't sure if you just didn't film the other side. I will try to use the alignment tool I've got if I can squeeze it in. Was it a pain lifting it back up ? I have an engine crane.. was considering using a sling and the crane before watching you bench it 🤣
If you need more room then slacken the other side of the subframe about 1/2 inch and it should give you more space for the gearbox to go into the wheel arch. You should have plenty room for the alignment tool that way. The box is heavy. I’m not gonna lie ., at least 11stone .,, so an extra pair of hands would come in handy.
I'm about to tackle this job but also replacing the gearbox on a T5. My only concern is the weight of the gearbox. Is it possible to manhandle it back in place with physical strength or would you need a jack of some kind?
Great video, camera work is probably the best i have seen for a technical video. What is the square block made of on your trolly jack?, and is it an after market product?. (where can it be bought from?) Excellent workmanship. 👍
Hola amigo, cordial saludo. de unos días atrás estoy mirando tus vídeos. De verdad estoy impresionado, nunca vi a alguien trabajar con tanta precisión como tú. Te FELICITO. por favor esa operación que hiciste con el sistema hidráulico del CLUTH en el minuto 30 y 31 de dejar el pedal al fondo,. se puede hacer con los frenos? Gracias.
Gesund ohne Bühne ist das nicht. Habe ich früher auch so gemacht Tagtäglich mit einem Rangierwagenheber... Aber Trotzdem Respekt für die Arbeit. Die meisten können es nicht, und sind sich zu schade.
Great work, but why no torque wrench specially fly wheel side installation ,and is it otherwise the torque setting of impact wrench as substitute?You drive a Vauxhall / Renault Van are they better to work on than VW? And lastly for the viewers "Getriebeseite" writing on friction plate translates to Gearbox side.
Good camera work and lighting. No silly music and long winded explanations. A pleasure to watch !
Thanks for taking time to leave us a a review. Much appreciated
Bloody hell,, dropping the sub frame to change a clutch, on your back... Man,, that is hard graft... Totally awesome.. 👌👍💯💯

Yesterday a mechanic replaced my clutch , but really you're an expert. I love your way.
Thank you Omar. Hope your vehicle is in full working order. That’s the main thing.
A job well done by a man who knows exactly what he's doing. Let me tell you its not an easy job.
Worked under cars alot, and let me say it aint easy..... this guy is a master at clutches. Like an art form 😎🏅👍🏻
Working on the ground like a real man, I’ve got to say you are strong Kev 💪🏽
Nice to see a mobile mechanic that actually knows how to fix a car...

Was it a pain lifting it back up ? I have an engine crane.. was considering using a sling and the crane before watching you bench it 🤣
If you need more room then slacken the other side of the subframe about 1/2 inch and it should give you more space for the gearbox to go into the wheel arch.
You should have plenty room for the alignment tool that way.
The box is heavy. I’m not gonna lie ., at least 11stone .,, so an extra pair of hands would come in handy.
@@WMCS awesome thank you very much for the advice. I'll let you know how it goes on. Its this weekend. Not looking forward to it. Bloody cold now....
Super,bravo!
I'm about to tackle this job but also replacing the gearbox on a T5. My only concern is the weight of the gearbox. Is it possible to manhandle it back in place with physical strength or would you need a jack of some kind?
Молодец мужик
you are awesome bro I really appreciate what you are doing god bless you
Thank you
Great video, camera work is probably the best i have seen for a technical video. What is the square block made of on your trolly jack?, and is it an after market product?. (where can it be bought from?) Excellent workmanship. 👍
Hola amigo, cordial saludo. de unos días atrás estoy mirando tus vídeos. De verdad estoy impresionado, nunca vi a alguien trabajar con tanta precisión como tú. Te FELICITO. por favor esa operación que hiciste con el sistema hidráulico del CLUTH en el minuto 30 y 31 de dejar el pedal al fondo,. se puede hacer con los frenos? Gracias.
Another great job, dread to think the cost of the dual mass clutch replacement lol. Noticed your subs are increasing nicely. 👏👏
~500
My 2.5 tdi taps from the top could this be a tappet are Dmf ? Loved the video top man

Спасибо ! Все очень подробно ! Успехов вам !
Красава. Мне это тоже предстоит.
Gesund ohne Bühne ist das nicht.
Habe ich früher auch so gemacht Tagtäglich mit einem Rangierwagenheber... Aber Trotzdem Respekt für die Arbeit. Die meisten können es nicht, und sind sich zu schade.
mobile clutch service. you have the dream. making it happen
i hear the trucks passing...
That’s it … ☀️🍻.. keeping it simple.
Great work, but why no torque wrench specially fly wheel side installation ,and is it otherwise the torque setting of impact wrench as substitute?You drive a Vauxhall / Renault Van are they better to work on than VW? And lastly for the viewers "Getriebeseite" writing on friction plate translates to Gearbox side.
Fly-wheel side,... he pulled on that wrench with a grunt at the end,... so those bolts ain't going anywhere.
